THE OREGON . DAILY JOURNAL", PORTLAND', FRIDAY EVENING, V MAY 24, 1807. .,'
I Note 16 Our Customers
and the People in General
We) are' being criticised by some of our worthy contempo'
rarlca-or in language that cannot fail to be understood by
all we are creating havoc with the business of certain stores.
because we are always cutting prices. We've been in busi
ness for more than 14 years and it's time our methods were
understood. ' We are in business to undersell. We are in busi
ness to serve the masses. We buy surplus, stocks, sure, If we
get them so cheap that we can make the people's dollar worth
two dollars We send our agent east among the makers, 'and
if we discover one who is hard up for funds, well give him
money for goods, provided he needs money urgently, and will
sell accordingly ' Is there any harm in that? Aren't we -the
people's agents ? Isn't this the people's store? Don't the peo
ple appreciate it? .. Would this always be the busiest store if
it weren't always the best? We sell more .clothing, shoes,
hats and furnishing goods than any two stores in Portland,
Oregon, because we have the outlet, and the outlet wouldn't
exist if we didn't undersell You must admit that for mer
chandise, fine, medium or trifling, this is the store, and no
matter what you see, or when you see it, or where you see it,
you will find it here for legs.' "You may dress better, and'
swell your bank account, if you learn this lesson by heart and
profit by it. We have no charge accounts, we sell only for cash.

The entire unsold production of X. I. Singer

of making. This is the. sort of newt we
hope, for the sake of the clothing; trad in
general, you will seldom see. -But it makes
good reading for the man who wants, good
clothes cheap. Very few of the people who
have commented daily on the unseasonable
weather have any idea of the havoc that
weather has played with the makers of
men's clothing. One of the biggest, strong-
eet and beat clothine? concerns in th coutt
try I. J. Singer ft Sons of New York
- determined - last week not ; to delay any
longer in disposing of the stock which the
slow and chilly spring kept on their hands.
They were anxious to. get to work on their
. fall and winter production. So they came
to our buyer, who was in the market, with
a proposition which culminate! in this- ad
